Chapter 1: Exploring Bosque
The Bosque project was born from Mark Marron's work, where he questioned the accidental complexity that exists in programming languages nowadays. He proposed a new programming language design that eliminated the factors of this complexity in terms of loops, recursion, mutable state, and reference equality, among others, thus resulting in a new paradigm called Regularized Programming.
Bosque has a syntax inspired by TypeScript and adopts semantics from ML and JavaScript, giving rise to a programming language that is easy to write and read.
The simplicity of Bosque allows programmers who decide to adopt Bosque to focus on the core of the problem without worrying about the errors that are caused by the language's accidental ...
